    OBSERVANCE OF FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF AURORA THEATER MASS SHOOTINGS

  (Mr. COFFMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, tomorrow we will mark the first anniversary 
of the mass shooting that took place in my hometown of Aurora, 
Colorado, in the early morning hours of July 20 of last year.
  We must never forget the names of those who lost their lives in this 
senseless tragedy:
  Matt McQuinn,
  Micayla Medek,
  Jessica Ghawi,
  Gordon Cowden,
  Jesse Childress,
  John Larimer,
  Jonathan Blunk,
  Veronica Moser-Sullivan,
  Alex Sullivan,
  Alexander Teves,
  Rebecca Wingo,
  and AJ Boik.
  Aurora was devastated in the aftermath of the shooting, but we have 
come together as a community in a demonstration of both strength and 
resilience, and tomorrow we will come together again to remember those 
who were lost last year.
